New Jersey Sea Grant Consortium is holding a Favorite Beaches of the Jersey Shore photo contest. The top 12 photos of the Garden State’s beautiful coastline will be used to create the organization’s annual desktop calendar for 2021.
New Jersey Sea Grant Consortium’s graphic design team will select 24 photos from all entries received by 5 p.m. June 1. Those finalists will then be posted on the NJSGC website where visitors can vote for their favorite throughout the month leading up to the July 4th holiday.
NJSGC’s “Jersey Shore Photo Contest Submission Guidelines:
